Volvo Truck Corporation Date Group No. Release Page Service Bulletin 12.05 175 09 18 19(47) Coolant Volumes 1 Only a guideline, as this varies dependent on vehicle installation and equipment. Service intervals 1 Note that Volvo Coolant and Volvo Coolant VCS shall not be mixed. 2 Note that Volvo Coolant VCS and anti-corrosion agent shall not be mixed. Anti-freeze Note: Mixing with other types of concentrated coolant can result in inferior anti-corrosive properties resulting in damage to the engine. When the coolant is changed, the cooling system should be carefully flushed clean.
The adjacent table shows the approximate volume of concentrated coolant required for anti-freeze protection at the given temperature. Note: -46 C is the minimum temperature below which freezing cannot be prevented. Increasing the amount of concentrated coolant beyond this decreases frost protection.
